Illustration design for Giant Squid's game "The Pathless" with iam8bit
Designed and collaborated with Austin Wintory, Matt Nava and Cindy Liu
I felt honored to hear Matt wanted me to help design this vinyl release. I used this opportunity to ask
Austin about his thought process when making the soundtrack, so that I may try to reflect it into the visual designs.
Cindy was great at making sure everything aligned together with the game!
The idea was that it would be a swipe interface for interactive museums
A general 3-step layout was established, Kevin Dart made Dr. Fido and I had free reign for the rest. haha
From a list of Channel Island creatures, I chose the snake because a lot of folks are spooked by them...
My goal was to have anyone be just a smidge less spooked, and maybe even a bit more curious.
Sorry if it still scared you though!
Collaborative album cover art of If I'm Not Yet
I was given sample audio of the album to be inspired by the music's themes (love, creation, crisis)
and possible notes of imagery (topography, clouds, storms). I personally love the challenge of
intentionally tying themes into visuals, so the creation of this image was quite rewarding.
